Vice President Kamala Harris seems to be stuck in a political quagmire that could rival quicksand. Despite the major polls showing her slightly ahead of former President Donald Trump on a national level, more scrutinized inspection reveals her campaign is wobbling like a toddler on a trampoline. It’s a real treat to watch as she pours over her internal numbers, realizing her approval ratings could use some good old-fashioned CPR.
In key battleground states, Harris is losing traction faster than a bad reputation in a small town. Voters are beginning to shake their heads and hit the brakes on her campaign, and it doesn’t take a political science degree to see that the media is not so subtly shifting gears as they cover her struggling candidacy. It’s almost as if they hold pity for her as they pen together segments that try to spin her plummeting popularity into something more palatable. After all, they certainly wouldn’t want to upset the delicate democratic applecart.

The more pressing issue at hand? How could Harris possibly hope to secure votes while being overshadowed by the drama constantly swirling around her administration’s policies? Every day brings a new crisis or scandal, leaving voters wondering if she’s more interested in getting a high-five from the progressive left or actually connecting with the average American. One has to wonder if she’s still trying to relate to the struggle of everyday citizens while jet-setting to swanky fundraisers. Could it be that the campaign based on ‘equity’ is, in reality, failing to deliver anything equitable for the working class?
While she fumbles and juggles her way through speeches that leave many scratching their heads, it seems like merely being the vice president isn’t enough anymore. With a national approval rating that feels like an anchor and internal polling revealing cracks in her base, Kamala Harris finds herself in a precarious position – ready to be set on fire by her party if they don’t see a quick turnaround. The internal panic is palpable. Who wouldn’t be anxious while knowing that her party has high expectations and low satisfaction ratings?
This political fiasco might serve as a lesson in why directly aligning themselves with their national identity—or lack thereof—won’t save her from slipping down the slippery slope of public opinion. Democrats, once riding high on a wave of seemingly endless enthusiasm, are now looking nervously at the clock. Time is ticking, and the clock is not a friend to those whose charts have reversed direction faster than a government committee dodging accountability. As giddy as the conservative crowd may be, they must also prepare for the inevitable debate season, where Harris will have to put her money where her mouth is—assuming she can remember the talking points.
